The backbone of America is its trucker owner operators. Chinese truck tires gives flexibility in quality and price to owner operators that top tier brands cannot offer. Approximately fifty percent of truck tires that are sold are Chinese. An anti dumping law on truck tires will increase tire prices in all truck tire tier segments by about 35-40% which would be detrimental to owner operators not just for business, but giving them less discretional money to feed their families, save for retirement, or benefit from global decreases in rubber and oil.
